Olympus EPM2 Tokina EL 28mm 2.8 and featuring a new EVF to help with the manual lenses. I still need to mess with the diopter more to make sure I have it right for my eyes.

There's a creek on a relative's land. It features some nice palisades and a waterfall. I need to work on my conditioning before I attempt a photoshoot there, it is challenging terrain made worse by the fallen leaves. I visited it a couple days ago. I made the trip OK, but I had a fatigue related mistake. That won't do.

1. Those came out nice!

I love the light captured in the first four.

I love the light and shadows in the BW.

[alfredo]

3. Thank you. The black and white are black and white because of flare.

It's easier to repair in monochrome.

5. I still like them.

I like the stark sky against the shadows and light areas.

So there!

8. The sky wasn't as dramatic as I want, but you go with the sky you have,

not the sky you want.

9. Feh!

2. Nice shots, my dear alfredo!

The focus looks spot on to me.

Very pretty country...

4. Thanks. It's nearing the Kentucky River valley. It's a four hundred million

year old landscape, wonderfully eroded for our viewing pleasure.

6. Nice photos alfredo

I specially love the horse and what a beautiful area.

7. When the Irish saw this area, they fell in love. The limestone water is especially good

for horses. It seems to be good for vineyards too.
